im definitely listening to the Fightin Texas Aggie Soccer BTHO OSU starting NOW at 4:45...so get on ur comps and cheer em on from ur house!

NU was already knocked off by the sips so thats GOOD FOR US!!! now if t.u. can knock of KU in the next round and we take care of business, we'll be able to drill the sips in the championship!!

later

Cool. The Aggies will need to take care of Missouri, too. But they owe Mizzou for a couple of losses, and paybacks on Friday would be sweet.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

It's almost halftime, and the Aggies are doing everything but scoring. The Aggies have had some great chances, too. They need to get the ball in the net before half.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

The Aggies get their goal just before half. Shannon Labhart on a free kick just outside the box.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Carrie Berend and Ashlee Pistorius team up to make it 2-0 Ags in the second half.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Looks like it's 3-0 according to live stats right now. However, they gave a goal to "TEAM". Anybody know what this means? I figure it's just a header off a corner kick and they couldn't determine who got the goal. Or perhaps an own-goal by OSU...

I think Matt Simon said Burke took the shot, but it glanced off an OSU defender on the way in.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

whoop we win. I was cold but extremly fun. I yell my voice out. I'll have it back for saturday.

But you'll need it on Friday.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Burke shot and the OSU defender deflected it perfectly over the goalie into the goal. The announcer said that Amanda would be accreditted with a goal without an assist.

The Aggies spent most of the game on the OSU end of the field, and before the first score had a spectacular shot by Pistorious bounce off the far goalpost into what seemed the goal, but it must not have completely crossed the line. Except for the Self Goal, OSU had some really lucky breaks in the goal....rather I should say they hustled maniacally to get their bodies in intercept position.

Paige Carmichael went down when an OSU forward fouled her about 5 minutes from the end of the game. Looked like she was in pain and didn't come back into the game (Coach G. was substituting pretty freely after that anyway).

Colorado was down 1-0 late in the match and pulled out an overtime win over Missouri. This might be break for the Aggies, who beat Colorado 2-1 this season but have lost to Missouri twice in a row.

Wow, this is from the second-half stats on the Big 12 site:

[89:52] Shot by CU Keller, Jessica BLOCKED.
[89:52] GOAL by CU Regan, Tricia, Assist by Keller, Jessica, goal number 1 for season. Missouri 1, Colorado 1

In overtime:
[98:05] Foul on MU Gibbs, Ashley.
[98:09] CU Munnelly, F.
PENALTY KICK GOAL. Colorado 2, Missouri 1 End of period [98:09].

That's wild. Colorado scores the tying goal with 8 seconds left in the match, then wins on a penalty kick in OT. Wow!

Sounds a lot like our game against Texas last year. I think they scored with around a minute to play and then won on a penalty kick when the ref called handball on one of our girls in the box.

Would somebody mind posting an update on Paige if they hear it? Hate to see a player get injured so far into the season... If she can't play the Big12 Tourney though, I hope she can make it back for the NCAAs.

Look's like a torn ACL. If so, she's out till August.

Man, that's no good. Hopefully some other girls step up and fill the spot. Best wishes for a speedy recovery for her!

Burke would be a natural for the spot, since she spent most of last year playing there. And Burnett filled in last night after Paige's injury and she looked good too. I didn't get to see the CU vs. MU match, but I heard it was fast and physical. I can't make the match tomorrow, so the Aggies better win to insure a game on Sunday. BTHO CU!

we have so much depth at paiges position we can easily throw 2 or 3 people there to make up for her. in fact out depth is so good there, id say we could start someone else and not have a single bit of drop off at all.

we'll be fine and i hope she recovers.

That's a very tough injury. I wish her a full recovery. I love these players like they were my own kids. Gig'em Paige!
